Extended Caption 26Two contemporary treatises by Franchino Gaffurio, the Teorica musicae and the Angelicum ac divinum opus musice,219 illustrate the Pythagorean experiments with items found in both studioli. 220 The Teorica musicae presents flutes and recorders such as those found ubiquitously at Urbino.

Mr Paley, the present Archdeacon of Carlisle, in his Principles of Moral and Political Philosophy, having, with much clearness of argument, shewn the duty of submission to civil government to be founded neither on an indefeasible jus divinum, nor on COMPACT, but on EXPEDIANCY, lays down this rational position:
